Blindness
Seems you want it back
You want it all
Thoughtless rapture
I can’t stand it
Simple and certain
Yes, love, I’m on the run
Stopstopstopstopstop saying that
Stopstopstopstopstop saying what you don’t mean
Tempted and righteous
Chemical, religious
We’re still fighting to
Wake up and start again
Stopstopstopstopstop
When love breathes down your neck,
I can feel it
Stopstopstopstopstop
Ultimate
Now we see the air we breathe
Where’s that spirit?
I don’t want to wash away
Kicking against the undertow
Straight out of our bottles
Out of our TVs, out of our paychecks, out of our skulls
I don’t want to wash away
Big trouble, big big trouble
How deep does this one go?
Punk science stops here
I don’t want to wash away
In the underwater, next to L.A.
Down on the corner where the stars rise in concrete
Now we see the air we breathe
Where’s that spirit?
Out of our bottles
Wash away
Ruff Stuff
I could stand your dark
It was like a tide, like a dull razor blade
Walk it back, no, swallow the type
I could stand your dark
Show me your tuffest
It’s a bomb, you’re a test
They’re unbeaten coming in
In the night, all dressed in flame
Through the windows, hear them sing
Shadows sing! Shadows, sing!
See how they love it
Show me your ruff stuff
Fake Chest
Pink jacket got a nice neck handkerchief
Tied around her voice
Rock steady, she rock so certainly
Like hard cash
Stay pretty, stay a nice size four, stay at home
Until she’s old enough
Have it all, do what you feel, whatever you want
Just don’t upset the boys
Don’t run away, don’t want to change, don’t ever give them anything
Except what it takes to hurt them where it hurts the most
Hurt them where they hurt the most
Don’t fade
Kill them where they die the worst
Don’t ever give them anything except what it takes to hurt
Don’t fade
